Sensitivity settings?

Basically just what the title says, what sensitivity settings do you guys tend to use in game? I myself have been using the preset ones since launch, but i'm wanting to see what others use. Mostly because I feel that higher skilled players use very different settings from the presets.

A lot of snipers will use -3 or -5 to steady their aim. Me, I just use 0.

First presets, then +2 then presets, then -2, and now presets again. :)

I just turned off my game, but I will check this out later! I switched things around recently, and I think I have max sensitivity on stick controls. :)

It really depends which weapon I'm using.

For chargers I use 0, because I need steady aim but I also like to be able to snap my shots just by flicking my wrist a little bit.

For blasters I like to use higher sensitivity (2 or 3) because I can quickly turn around and shoot someone behind me, but I still retain a certain degree of accuracy.

For the jet squelcher (I just picked it up but I'm doing well with it) I use 1 or 2, because you still need to be reasonably accurate, but I just prefer positive sensitivities.

And with the roller (which I cannot use at all by the way, I range from 'moderately competent' to 'very good' at the rest of these weapons) I use 5, because I like to stack swim speed and zip around like a death machine.

I'll just be that guy and tell you that I've set my sens to 0 and kept it this way for all weapons. I'm a charger main. It's the perfect middle for quick, but steady snapping/flicking and still being able to make 180s no problem. Using different sensitivities for different weapons would only mess with my muscle memory.

Mines would be -1 motion sensitivity and +3 stick sensitivity using the joycon grip for all weapons currently.

For a while, I had +1 stick and 0 motion. I went with -3 motion when switching to chargers. Lately I have been getting used to +5 motion and stick. I also use that setting with chargers, since most people will move if you aim at them too slowly, but it's still kinda tough.

Awright, so I checked my sensitivity settings earlier today, and I was right about the stick settings, they're set to max (5). My motion controls are set to 1. :) I don't use motion controls all the time, though, mainly when I look up and down... I rest my arms on my thighs (while sitting on the floor) when playing. I always tend to find the easiest/laziest ways and stick to them. *^.^*
